Obsidian Posted July 2, 2018 Previous session. I'M NOT DEAD ASS 37 hits on the 21st of July, 7PM EST. As ever I'll be linking to the ASScord server 24 hours beforehand and if Jimmy's up to it we'll have another session 12 hours later to cater to all timezones. Here's a timer! But lo, a twist! Instead of 3 themes to choose from, there's going to be only one mandatory theme picked at complete random. It was suggested to me that doing this would help with breeding mapping ingenuity as well as contributing to overall better mapset quality, so I'm gonna trial it for this session and then see where we stand. Should be fun~ And yes, I've finally uploaded the previous session to Incoming. It's been a crazy 2 months. 14 Share this post Link to post
Dragonfly Posted July 2, 2018 I don't think I'll be able to attend the main session due to weekend work, but the afterparty hosted by Jimmy sounds plausible. Hope to see you all there! :) 0 Share this post Link to post
riderr3 Posted July 7, 2018 (edited) Hope I will join 2nd session, if this happens. 0 Share this post Link to post
NuclearPotato Posted July 8, 2018 Think I can make this, assuming my mapping batteries are sufficiently recharged by then. 1 Share this post Link to post
Obsidian Posted July 18, 2018 (edited) Alright, these are the theme selections for this month: on the day I'll find myself a random number generator and that'll decide which one we go with. 20 monsters max Every floor scrolls Flying monsters only 100 monsters min Emphasis on infighting 2x2 textures (2 textures, 2 flats) No 90 or 45 degree angles Crushing floors Relay - 1 hour for layout, 1 for gameplay and decoration Sucking cock while mapping Silent teleporting See you on the weekend!

Tristan Posted July 19, 2018 37 is my favourite number so I'm kinda obliged to contribute :^) 2 Share this post Link to post
Fletcher` Posted July 19, 2018 I'll try to make it this time. I dunno. I've had some IRL stuff going on lately that might hinder my appearance. 0 Share this post Link to post

I think 1 would definitely force mappers into quality encounter designs, since they wouldn't be able to rely on hordes of monsters. I'm not quite sure how 8 or 9 would work. I'm a much bigger fan of the revised 10 than the original. This is a good list of themes. Hopefully, I'm available to join in. 0 Share this post Link to post

Jimmy Posted July 21, 2018 (edited) I will also once again be hosting a second session (with a second theme) precisely 12 hours from the start of the first session. Edited July 22, 2018 by Jimmy 0 Share this post Link to post

I thought that @Obsidian's plan was to get a random number generator and use that to pick one of the 10 possible themes? Is that no longer the plan? Or were you just going to have 4 themes because that's how you roll? Either way, with a second session confirmed, I'll definitely be able to participate in one of the sessions. 0 Share this post Link to post

Fletcher` Posted July 22, 2018 I'm ducking out. I'm in no shape to do something like this right now. Sorry. 0 Share this post Link to post
Jimmy Posted July 22, 2018 (edited) 2 hours to go before the second session starts. Sorry for not posting sooner, I kinda forgot. Another temp link to the Discord will be up with one hour to go. 13 hours ago, Pegleg said: I thought that @Obsidian's plan was to get a random number generator and use that to pick one of the 10 possible themes? Apologies, I actually completely missed the part in the OP that said there'd only be 1 theme this time. The new session will have an alternative theme to select. (Or you could do both if you're so inclined.) Edited July 22, 2018 by Jimmy 1 Share this post Link to post
